Overview
cardiac catheterization shows normal right atrial pressure most of the times, normal right ventricular (RV) pressures are present unless significant tricuspid regurgitation (TR) is present.
Indications
Given that echocardiography along with Doppler pulse imaging is quite capable of identifying patients with Ebstein's anomaly, cardiac catheterization is not routinely performed to diagnose Ebstein's anomaly.[1][2]
Indications for cardiac catheterization include the following:
- If closure of an atrial septal defect is considered
- For preoperative assessment of coexisting coronary heart disease
Hemodynamic Findings
- The right atrial pressure usually not increased due to the fact that the right atrium is enlarged and compliant.[1][2]
- Normal right ventricular (RV) pressures are present unless significant tricuspid regurgitation (TR) is present
- Pulmonary arterial pressures are normal or slightly decreased due to the tricuspid regurgitation and if an atrial septal defect is present, a large right-to-left shunt
- An atrial septal defect (ASD) may be present
